On Friends, Chandler and Joey give up their apartment- their apartment in Manhattan-for the chance to watch two of their straight female friends kiss for one minute. They don’t even have to be real lesbians: “ Those twins” are among the things a canonical Coors Light drinker loves. Still, the idea that straight men like it when two women make out (and more!) is so commonplace that it’s a cultural touchstone.
In a Marie Claire survey of mainly female respondents, lesbian porn was the second most popular option, after the heterosexual variety. Nor is the fascination with lesbians solely a male phenomenon. Even past data dumps from the same company have purported to show that “teen” or “MILF” porn are actually more ubiquitous.
Of course, the Pornhub results are far from scientific.
Lesbians uniting New Yorkers and Alabamians like little else does. Lesbians trotting across the vast, great Western plains. But otherwise, it’s lesbians riding up the Eastern seaboard on the Acela of love.
